The Fossil Collegiate Collection

The Fossil Collegiate Collection

Uh oh, football season is upon us again! All those football fans flooding into the malls to shop while they wait for the game to start. And then once the game starts, all of those people asking you what the score is when you have absolutely no clue. I'm sure I'm not alone here on this. But I also understand that there is another point of view when it comes to football. So all you football fans out there, this blog post is for you!

Introducing the Fossil Collegiate Collection. These are handbags and accessories that allow you to show your team spirit without having to wear a football jersey. The collection offers a wide variety of styles in both leather and canvas. There are styles you can use while traveling to away games and styles you can use everyday.

And even if you're not a hardcore football fan yourself, these handbags and accessories seem like they would offer a few great gift ideas for a loved one who is.

The Fossil Collegiate Collection is available for the following teams: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana State, Oklahoma, Texas, and Texas A&M.
(Please note that I randomly chose Texas A&M to be pictured, so don't be mad at me if you don't like their team. I don't know anything about them. LOL!)
Pictured is the Letterman Duffle Bag ($138), Victory Hobo Bag ($118), Letterman Cosmetic Bag ($24), Letterman Key/Coin Purse ($22), Letterman Clutch ($40), and Varsity Spirit Clutch ($34). Also available are the Letterman Travel Bag, Letterman Messenger, and Victory Belt.
